	The Rake: Features : Judith Guest: Ordinary Person (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Judith Guest’s combination of courage, talent, timing, and luck has reaped rewards that are reserved for a very few.
		Guest thinks she just wants to say how she feels: that she loves this place, her country, and is surprised that so many people in it feel differently than she does.
		Guest is more than a hundred and fifty pages into her next novel—a roaring start for a writer who’s known to take her time (after the tenth year of writing Errands, her fourth novel, she finally stopped counting).

	Amazon.com: Ordinary People: Books: Judith Guest (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Guest's characters move with considerable reality and a touching humanity above the novel's unexpectedly complex underpinnings, and the author's prose is smooth, easy to read and understand, and completely faultless.
		Judith Guest wrote a remarkable book about an ordinary family's response to an extraordinary tragedy; it was so popular in its time precisely because the Jarretts could be any American family and what happened in their family could happen in anyone's family.
		Guest is a skilled writer and she makes her characters live and breathe; we see Conrad in all his anguish and adolescent awkwardness, working through pain and grief to realize that some things can't be explained or rationalized; they just are.

	Bookreporter.com - THE TARNISHED EYE by Judith Guest
		Guest's prose is spare, which is not to say it's simple.
		Guest's tale is based on two true-life crimes that occurred in Michigan in the 1960s.
		Guest is not a prolific author, but what she perhaps lacks in quantity she makes up for in quality.

	Judith Guest Ordinary People Essays - The Extraordinary Family in Judith Guest's novel, Ordinary People
		Judith Guest's novel Ordinary People evinces some main principles of the modernist literary movement, such as the philosophy that modern man is beset by existential angst and alienation.
		These observations about modern man are reflected in Judith Guest's novel, Ordinary people, through the Jarrett family, especially Calvin and Conrad.
		Guest therefore juxtaposes the mundane side of American life with dark, gloomy connotations.

	BookLoons Reviews - Tarnished Eye by Judith Guest (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Guest weaves an intriguing mystery with action that moves at a good pace.
		A peek into the Sheriff's mind is a peek into the workings of the police bureaucracy, with the bonus of understanding what a police official contends with as a husband and father.
		The description of the multiple-murder scene is almost too realistic to be borne, but Guest stops at the right spot to get her point across without causing nausea.
